Thank you so very much for your thoughtful reply.

I actually agree with you about all of this, sad to say, that the entire planet is quite literally burning down around us, but I do have a special place that I love, my "spiritual home" as I call it and I figure that, "Well, when it all goes up in flames at least I will be somewhere and with someone that I love."

Maybe that's the best any of us can hope for.
